The body of a defense bureau designer is found on a train; a woman in a skirt was involved in the case; Posting in CHAT: Russia The passenger could not be saved. And his fellow passengers: a girl with glowing red hair and two men, got off the train in front of the station indicated on their tickets. In 1979, a story took place on the territory of the Union in which Santa Clauses in uniform, store workers, catas de. underground salons, artists, party leaders and even a designer of secret weapons. How were all these people connected? Why did something happen in the Soviet Union that could form the basis of a bestseller or a world literary bestseller The Leningrad - Simferopol Train In August 1979, tickets to Simferopol on a fast train could only be purchased with a transfer? The carriages at the festival were full of passengers. The conductors barely had time to boil water in the Titans, there were so many people wanting to drink tea. In one carriage at a stop in Tula, the conductor noticed that two men and one woman got off earlier than the station indicated on their tickets. This seemed strange to the conductor, and he decided to inspect the compartment from which these passengers emerged. A sad discovery awaited the guide there. On the bottom shelf he found a man with blood on his clothes. The man's cause of death was later determined to be a blow to the heart from an unknown metal object. Having discovered the body, the conductor reported this to the head of the train. He called the police. The station in Tula was looted. They tried to find those who were traveling with the man in the same compartment. But they disappeared into thin air. The deceased turned out to be Stanislav Kupriyanov, a designer at the defense department. In the 70-80s, a real arms race developed between the Union and the States. The Soviet Union responded to their technologies with its own, more high-tech ones. One of the programmers with whom the Union could theoretically confront the West was designer Kupriyanov. The departure of such a person immediately attracted the attention of the KGB central apparatus. (as they said then, (“the entire KGB was on guard”). Investigator Kashin constantly reported “to the top” about how the investigation was going. The first thing the investigators thought about: “The scientist has become a target of the West.” spies.” To those policemen, who remained to inspect the station, there was a witness who remembered the strange trinity when the red-haired lady rushed to the taxi stand with a plastic bag in her hand, which was not sold in all parts of the Union, but this was a rarity. The police interviewed the taxi drivers and found out in which car the redhead left. . Received the order: “Stop the car at any cost,” but the driver managed to drop the redhead off in front of him! The result, the wanted trio escaped from the conductor, who discovered the deceased designer, helped fill the gap in the tests, the man admitted that he was a fraudster, you just saw it. , how they played cards? The red-haired lady had a scar on her hand. “Rolling in a skirt” - Soviet researchers had never heard of it before. The word “Catalan” appeared in the Russian Empire and came to the people from pre-revolutionary prisons. The villagers made their own playing cards by gluing together sheets of newspaper and rolling an empty bottle on them. Hence the “roll”. The woman “skated” was surprised by the opera, but not at all because she could not be slim. Only if she wins will it be difficult for her to return the amount due. It was simply impossible to give them away by force. After analyzing the words of the witnesses, investigator Kashin decided that the red-haired beauty was a girl from the capital. According to eyewitnesses, she dressed and spoke as if she had been born in Moscow. Her companions can become the force that a woman may need to collect gambling debts. Kashin The Mysterious Woman Shortly before the New Year, a man in tights and a padded jacket was transferred to one of the sobering stations in Moscow. In the morning this man sobered up and said that he was a teacher at the city party committee. He was then taken to a researcher. There it turned out that the teacher was not an ordinary drunk, and that the night he was arrested, he was in trouble. The night before, the teacher and his friends decided to go to a party in one of the restaurants. In the secret room of the restaurant, teacher Nikolai Ivanovich sat drunk and playing cards. Red-haired Tatiana was also sitting at the table with Nikolai and several men. Players usually used beautiful women at the card table as entertainment. Even then it seemed to Nikolai that Tatyana was as much company in the room as wine or expensive snacks. The woman was sitting at the same table with Nikolai. She was beautiful and attracted attention. At first, Nikolai Ivanovich was very lucky, and his colleagues at the table rejoiced at his success. But in fact, the fellow party member swallowed the bait and fell into the trap set for him. Red-haired Tatyana, looking at Nikolai’s winnings, looked at him languidly and offered to continue the game at home. Nikolai had already filled enough bottles, so he unquestioningly followed the beauty. But the teacher, who was unsteady on her feet, was brought not to Tatiana’s house, but to one of the katrans. This is what the Soviet Union called underground halls with everything necessary for playing. Only the elite of the Soviet Union could get into the katra. Everyone played, even the ministers. It was in such a rage that red-haired Tatiana beat teacher Nikolai for a large sum. Instead of paying, he decided to laugh. But then two men approached him and explained that he would still have to pay for the bet. As a result, Nikolai was stripped, robbed, dressed in rags and thrown into the park. But the loss of clothes, money and valuables was not the most important thing that happened to Nikolai that night. Tatyana and her thugs took away her party card. During the Soviet Union, losing a party card could mean the end of a person's career. Because of this, Nicolao did not wait peacefully and calmly for his recovery from sobriety. up the center, but went to the investigator and told him everything that Nikolai’s case and the case of designer Kupriyanov were combined into one case, because the suspects in both cases were the same. The police check of the katran yielded nothing. Local regulars swore that they had never seen red-haired Tatiana. Investigator Kashin realized that the tar workers were lying to him. And they could lie for only one reason: this girl had a high patron. However, from one informant Kashin managed to find out that Tatyana’s patron was a certain minister. Then it was decided to launch a union-wide attack on the players. Two dozen wanted criminals were arrested during the raid. But the red-haired animal seemed elusive. But the sharp Vyguzov was captured and fell into the hands of investigators during the attack. His testimony brought the resolution of the case regarding the death of the defense department designer closer. An accomplice in the chat, Vyguzov, told investigators that he was in a close relationship with the red-haired Tatyana. At first Tatyana was his girlfriend, but later she found herself a more respectable groom. Tatyana Vermenich grew up in a house where smoke was a yoke, and relatives and impetuous guests endlessly started fights. Further in Tanya's life there were vocational schools, bad company and a prison sentence of 16 years for theft. In the colony, Tanya was taught to play cards very well. One day Tatyana lost and could not pay. Then her hand burned on the hot reflector. Tanya remained with a large scar for the rest of her life. After the colony, Tatyana was sent 100 km from Moscow. This is how all “comrades-in-arms” were treated back then. Sometimes Tanya came to Moscow on weekends and holidays. There, near the New Year's street tree, she met Mikhail. The young man approached Tatyana and said: “Do you want to have the same tree?” Tanya, who dreamed of restaurants, beautiful dresses and a carefree life, at that moment her heart began to beat. Thus began the love story of Vyguzov and Vermenich. Mikhail was an extremely successful and experienced player. For two years he taught Tanya card tricks. As a result, Tanya surpassed the teacher. And then, in one of the quatrains, the red-haired beauty met the “Minister”. None of the tar workers could name the real name of this mysterious man. But everyone called him Rudolf Stepanovich. This man was considered the unofficial card king of the capital. He had great connections. Having met the “minister”, Tatyana left Mikhail and went to an influential man. Mikhail continued to love Tatyana, clenched his teeth with jealousy, but did not leave her. He agreed to be her assistant. One day on the train, he and his brother followed the lead of the red-haired beauty and agreed to have fun, and at the same time…
